What size seed bead are you using? In general I find the larger seed beads
are harder to tension correctly. I like 8's for that reason - they're almost
self tensioning.

I have been trying to work out a new spiral design and can't find one that
I
like. I started a new one using 6lb. fireline and I can't get the tension
right. I think I will have to go back to using thread. Has anyone tried
using fireline for spirals?
Does anyone have any good Dutch spiral patterns you could share?
